New series starts tonight.
First episode is on at 9pm and lasts for 1 hour, next weeks episode is on at 10pm and lasts for ½ hour, I'm guessing 10pm will be the regular slot after that.
Love the first series, let's hope this series will be just as good.

A one-hour special marks the return of the award-winning comedy about the BBC. One year on and head of values Ian Fletcher has finally got his own office. He and the team have a new set of challenges to rise to, including the impending royal visit of HRH Prince Charles. The question is, which of the management team will get to shake the royal hand?
Head of BBC brand Siobhan Sharpe and her team at Perfect Curve have been tasked with giving a makeover to the BBC coverage of Wimbledon following rumours of a bid from a rival broadcaster. Her response is a brand mash-up to end all brand mash-ups.
Meanwhile, over on the creative frontline, entertainment-format producer David Wilkes is trying to come up with the next big factual-entertainment series after Britain's Tastiest Village failed to fly. He's got the title - Up Town, Down Town - he just hasn't got a show or a cast.
Finally, intern Will Humphries's security pass won't let him into the building. Is it a technical problem or something more significant? {source}

Moving it to an hour format might have been a mistake,.
Just this first ep.
How can you say that anyway just 23 minutes in?!?!?
Because the whole thing doesn't feel as tight as it did previously too much filler.
But loved the Cl***son stuff!
No, it's just the same pace - You're seeing what you want just because you know its 60 minutes.
I read a preview that said it was slower but I think you have a point. Doesn't seem
different to me.
If you don't get it then just stop watching.
Have to agree. This comedy is absolute pants.
Its not a matter of not getting it mark, the so called comedy is seriously poor so there is nothing to get.
I get it, I find it funny, comedy is subjective.
Yes, it is. Very funny.
It may be a hard show for a newcomer to get into but the jokes and characters have been built up in the previous series and Twenty Twelve which came before it.
"It's all good".
I find it funny, some proper laugh out loud moments, a great cast. I've never worked anywhere like the bbc but this is how I imagine it would be, the endless pointless meetings.
